NEW WOMAN IN LITERATURE.
Jeannetto GUder Give. Her Idea Concern.
'.. " tha Talked of Creature,
The new woman of the novelist is
merely one of Dr. Max Ncfdau's degen
erates. She. is the creation of a writer
Who is hysterioal and degenerate, and
the world takes her as something that
really exists. To be Bure, there are plenty
of women with "pasts" and with
"yearnings,"" and there always have
been and probably always will be, but I
doubt if any woman outside of an insane
asylum talks the rubbish about spiritual
impacts,' tells that "we are tones cf one
chord," and about the "vile slavery"
of marriage, as do the women of I Miss
Pendered and Mr. Grant Allen. Writers
of this Bort xlo not represent the women
of. the day any mere . than the painted
women of tho streets represent the wom
en of good society.-..-: . j-.rv.
" The jaundiced writers of "The Yel
low Book" cannot be expected to? give
ns pictures of healthy lives. Their tastes
run to worm eaten fruit. (They have no
liking for that which is! red with the
hue of health, v They prefer the yellow
hue of decay. Dr. Nordan is qnitej right
when he calls it disease. The heroines
of '.'The Yellow Book," of ?Discbrds"
and of "Wreckage" might have i been
taken from Lombroso's study of the fe
male offender. : If they exist outside of
their creator's brains, their cases will be
found recorded in scientific; studies of
criminology or in the ordinary police re
ports. ; j-- .;.
The new woman aa I find her outside
of the pages of fiction is an industrious,
healthy minded, healthy bodied young
person, with a certain amount of inde
pendence, who cares more for out of door
sports than for indoor follies, and who
if she has work to do does it and does
not waste her time in telling about it
Her spirits run high over the adventures"
of "A Gentleman of France," she laughs
and cries by turns over "Trilby, and
thinks "The Dolly Dialogues' great
fun, but for "Yellow Discords" and the
like she has no use. . . ' j
I inn happy to say that little of the
hysterioal literature of the day originates
in this country. It is almost entirely of
'.bngnsh origin, some of our younger
writers have tried their hands at it, but
they do not take to it naturally, and it
i9 fast going out of fashion. 1
; . There always will be a handful of
people who like erotica,- but I think
there has been a turn in the tide which
even at its highest neer swamped the
writers of purer notion. Kudyard Kip
ling and Mrs Humphry Ward have
many more readers than Grant Allen
and Mary L. Pendered, and in this
country our writers of clean fiction are
the most popular. Jeannette Gilder.

CHAMP CLARK'S STORYL
How It Impressed a Youngster Who Heard
It In a Speech.. I 1
In the Qarneld-Hancoek campaign
there was a big Democratic meeting at
a certain place in St, Charles county, in
this state. A number of distinguished
"Democratic speakers were there, and"
we had a day of it. . The writer was then
a small child, but pio of the speakers
made a very profound impression upon
-his mind. The speaker was no other
than Champ Clark. !
No one asks now, "Who was Champ
Clark?" but then he was a new star in
the firmament. . i!"
We had a number of speeches,, and the
children were "Very tired. I can't speak
for the grown people,! because the good
.Democrats there would not have owned
to being tired, I know;, after such a dis
play of eloquence from their great party
leaders. At any rate I ,waa tired; but my
mother whispered : -. i
"There, is only one more speech,"
and I was much relieved. A blond young
man: was introduced as Champ Clark of
Pike county. He came forward with a
pleasant face and manner that at once
attracted my attention. He began in
this way : i . v V'- -'M - ;
"I am reminded of the boy who kill
ed a nossum and expected to 1 enjoy a
possum dinner the next day. The fam
ilv was about to sit down to the dinner
table when a wagon drove up , and
neighbor's family came in. The head
of tbe house announced that the visitors
had come to dinner. There was no room
at the table for our young friend, the
sportman, and he waited, with his eyes
nniinnnlv fixed on the dish OX possum,
The guests had good appetites. I Finally
there was only one piece of possum
left, and one of his own family took
that. Then the possum lover busted
right out a-cryiug. The disappointment
was too much for him. "
"My friends," continued Mr. Clark,
"I am in that same Condition. When I
heard the first speech, I thought, well
that is pretty bad, but still I have some
thing left to say. Then there came the
next speech, and the next, and when the
last speaker finished I just busted right
out a-orrinc. because tnere was not an
other thing left for me to say.'-
But there was, and he said it toa
He awakened that audience till you
could hoar its applause a mile away.
; I think that that was probably the
first time Champ Clark ever spoke in St
Charles county. He carried back home
with bim the thanks and appreciation
of a good many of his hoarers that day.

St. Louis, TnlF 23. The National
Silver party,! which holds its convention
here to-day, mav sot be able to boast of
a controllina; influence in the great tri
angular contest i which ? is to ! decide
the policy of the country for the four
years, beginning on the 4th of March
next, but it will be able to declare truth
fully that not one of the three parties
has had a handsomer or more convenient
convention hall than itself. . Music Hall
is part of the Exposition building. Itis
a very pretty place of entertainment, ca
pable of seating some five or six thou
sand people, and It is decorated for the
occasion with a good deal of taste.
At 13.80 o. m., Chairman Dr. Mott. ol
North Carolina, called the convention to
order, announcing that proceedings
would be opened with the reading of
the call for the convention by J. M. De
vine, secretary of the Bimetallic League,
which was accordingly done. At this
time there were probably 400 delegates
in their seats and two score spectators.
At 8.15 I Dr. Mott introduced Hon.
Francis T. Newlands, representative in
Congress ,for Nevada, as the temporary
chairman who addressed the conven
tion. Mr. Newlands' references to tbe
declarations , by the Democratic plat
form for free coinage of silver at the
ratio of 16 to 1. without interna
tional agreement, and to the quali-.
ties of the Democratic candidates
were received with much favorby . the
delegates. I His suggestion that bimetal
lists, retaining independenceof convic
tion and action upon non-essentials,
should unite upon the essential issue of
tne campaign witn tne Democrats, ana
under the gallant ryoune leader named
by that party, march to victory, received
a tumultuous response, which indicated
the intention ot tbe delegates to do that
very thing; Mr. Newlands question as
to the date when tbe commercial nations
of Europe would probably be brought
no to tbe point ot vettine .the united
States in an international agreement for
the free coinace of silver, was answered
bv one of the delecates sayine, amid
Uauehter,"When Gabriel blows his born.'
Delegates trcm an parts ot tne noor
said, in response to Mr. Newlands' ques
tions, that they -did not like the gold
standard, which he said had been the
standard of this country for three years,
Mr. Newlands spoke fifty minutes and
was warmly applauded at tbe close.
A permanent organization was then
undertaken, committees being named
by calling the roll of States. Some of
those which were represented failed to
respond. !,;
After naming the - committee on
Credentials the temporary , chairman
suggested that the State delegations get
together and select their representatives.
on tbe several committees, ana pending
this. Miss Sallie .Pierce, of St. Loots, was
escorted to tbe platform. bhe was
arrayed in a garb of white, over which
was draped tbe American flag, and with
a Liberty cap on her bead On her left
arm she wore shoulder and wrist brace
lets connected with chains of gold coins,
and on her bosom a delegate's badge,
the color of which was of old gold. She
stood in front of the presiding ; officer's
desk, which, was draped with yellow silk
bordered with gold bullion fringe. Miss
Pierce carried a small flag, and waving
it. said: t' Americans, under the folds of
bur grand old flag, I salute you." She
then recited the Declaration of Inde
pendence, and tbe swelling periods of
that document were greeted with raptur
ous applause. The conclusion of tbe
recitation, which was very ! effectively
rendered, was markea by a wiia out
burst of applause, while the Dana played
"Red. White and Blue
A delegate from Colorado ' moved
that tbe : thanks of the convention be
given Miss Pierce for her recitation of
the charter of American liberty and it
was adooted by a rising vote and more
cheering; It was finally agreed that the
State . delegations should nana tne
names of the different members of the
committee to tbe secretary. While the
lists were being prepared Chairman
Newlands read the following telegram
from Senator Teller
I. N. Stbvkns, St. Louis: The money
Question! overshadows all other ques
tions. On its rightful determination
depends the prosperity of the people and
perpetuity ot repuoncan insiuuiions.
All other Questions must be subordinate
to it. A vote for Bryan and Sewall is a
vote for industrial and financial inae
nendence ot tne American people irom
foreicn I domination and control, and
they should bave the support of all op
ponents of the gold standard.
Tbe sentiments containea in me teic
cram were vigorously acolauded.

to St. Louis. I hone success will attend
the efforts of the friends to have only
one ticket. Let the issue be squarely
joined and the verdict of the people re
corded.? " !
A recess until i 4 80 p. m, was finally
agreed to and at 2.23 o'clock the conven
tion seoarated. ! .
At 4 60 o clock ' Chairman wewianas
: ' . . . . ,
dropped his gavel. Mr. Williams, a
delegate from Nebraska, moved that a
committee ot three be appointed to in
vite the delegates to tbe Populist Con
vention to take seats in the galleries for
the afternoon, the Populists not peine in
session. It was unanimously adopted.
The Committee on Rules made its re
port and the Committee on Credentials
reported no contests.
Tbe Committee on permanent ur
ganization reported officers as named
above and tbe report, was accepted with
cheers. While a committee was escort
ing Mr. St, John to the chair. Mr. New
lands announced that Mr. Towns would
address the cbnvention to-morrow. The
delegates appeared delighted to know
that tbe business of the convention was
not to be rushed through and a final ad
taurnment reached to-night, as had been
rumored. Mr. -Newlands then intro
duced ; Mr. St. John as permanent chair
man. Mr. St. lohn prefaced his remarks
bv saving that it had been intimated
that he would be asked to preside over
the convention and he had put bis re
marks in writing, so that what he had to
say might be in a shape which he would
not regret navtng saia.
Tbe effect of the f peech upon the del
egates was most nappy, nearly every
sentence being followed by enthusiastic
manifestations ol approval.
When Mr. St. John concluded many
delegates rose to their feet and cheered.

13 THIS A NATION OF GRUMBLERS f
A, Hetel Blan Says That Guests Here Are .
Extremely Hard to Please.
"Americans are said to be tbe best
natnred pecplo in tho world, and it is
also often said that they trill put up
with moro inconvenience and discomfort .
without ' grumbling than the people of
other countries. " So spoke a prominent -
rfcotel proprietor ono evening last week, i
He went on: . I do not wish to contra-?
diet these broad statements only so far.
aa I they relate to -our people and our
hotels. ;, We have by far the best hotels-
in the world, and this is ho idle, Fourth'
of July boast, and yet of all the people
on earth our own are the greatest grum
blers and the most exacting af ter they
have placed their names on a hotel reg
ister. 'M'; vM": . M.;-,:;V', ' -
'To say that they simply want the
earth is sometimes .putting it mildly.
They want not only that, but want a
roof garden on top of it which will per
mit them to grab the moon. They want
the best of rooms, food and drink, baths
in every room, electric bells", speaking
tubes, stationery and an amount of wait
ing on that to satisfy some fcof them
would -necessitate providing a 'front'
for about every guest
And,' then, if this is all made satis
factory, and there is nothing else to kick
about, they kick about ; the charges.
Now, one often hears comparisons made
between this country and Europe, to the
decided detriment of the United States.
If anything goes wrong, it is immedf-,
ately said - that such a state of affairs
would not be tolerated in Europe. But
one will notice that unfavorable com
parisons made between our hotels and
those abroad are! generally made by
Americans who have never visited Europe.-
Europeans know better. We have
the best hotels in the .world, And those
of London, Paris or Berlin are not to be
compared with them. Enlightened for-M
eignerswill generally readily admit jfchis
themselves. : Just now; every guest we
have wantf a private bathroom, and no
matter how full the house W feels ag
grieved if it cannot be had. There is a
man staying in the thouse who recently
returned from Paris While there he
staid at the best oat least the highest
priced hotel ii the city. But no matter
what ho wasjwilling to pay be could
not get a .-private bath. He could not
evetteetX bath on the same floor with
his suit of "rooms, but had to go down
stairs to the hotel's public baths. "r
"Then, again, much has been said
xabbut tho cost of living in this. country
compared with that abroad. The truth
is, good living costs more in London
and Paris than it does in New York. Of
course I speak of the comparative prices
of the really first class hotels and res
taurants. I like to see our people go
abroad, as when they get home they
are, as a rule, fat 'better satisfied with
their own country than they were be
fore, and especially with our hotels and
modes of travelings " New York Trib

The JLaat of the Garrison.
In the course of : the giant struggle be
fore Metz, a handful of" chasseurs flung'
themselves into a small red roofed farm
house, determined to sell their lives
dearly. They barricaded .the ground
floor as strongly as they were able, and
from the upper story opened fire on their
assailants. For j nearly two hours the
Prussians were kept at bay. The storm
of rifle bullets riddled the roof and up
per walls, and finally, one by one, the
chassepots were silenced. Concluding
that the ammunition of the little strong
bold had at length been exhausted, and
prepared for a savage hand to hand tus
sle with the garrison, the Prussians
burst through the barricade and effected
an entrance. . i
To their amazement the ground floor
was unoccupied save for a little girl of
5, who looked up into their faces with
a smile of happy unconcern. She had.
been playing with her doll, and evident
ly thought that ' the heavy firing had
been an odd new game which the
grown ups" had been having especial
ly for her amusement As the big blue
eyed sergeant caught her up in his arms
and kissed her, she asked, with an air
of disappointment, why they had stop
ped the pretty "boom boom. " Through
the terrible death wrestle of twomight7
nations this happy little ; house mother
had been pleasantly absorbed in family
cares. The wrath of kings, the savagery
of ancient race hatreds, were things she
could not understand, even the hurri
cane of fire and lead had seemed to her
but such strange elemental music as the
wrea in its nest- hears when; a thunder
shower sweeps over the woodland.
A ladder led to the upper floor of the
farmhouse,' and when the conquerors as-
scended they found among the wreckage
of shattered roof' and crumbling walls
the rest of the garrison no more than
nine in all lying dead. Beside them
lay the mother ; or toe child, with a
chassepot still clutched in her hand.

enough, and at once greeted him. "Ah,

caped his memory, and to convince him
that he had not forgotten him Rossini
began whistling Bishop's glee, " When

, A New Race of Roses Perpetual. .
The Gardeners, Chronicle calls atten
tion to a new race of roses which nas
been introduced by some Paris growers.
They belong to the Polyantha group-
that is to say, they hear tneir flowers m
trusses. The new roses have the advan
tage over the others of being perpet
ual. " and consequently they flower con
tinuously all through the summer. . inis
advantage they owe to their origin, a
natural cross (croisement naturel), ob
served in the Lyons gardens, between
the flowers of the first : specimens or
Polyantha introduced from Japan and
some hvbrid perpetual roses.: tsy repeal-;
ed and careful selections, a new race of
roses has been produced which, like an
nuals, germinate, flower and produoe
Beeds in less than a year. The term
r-P'ia i-nKt,ifiedbv the height. which
in adult plants is only about 20 incnea.
The flowers are single, semidouble or
double, in almost equal proportion, and
present almost all the variations of color.
observed in cultivated roses, jriowenng
commences in the first year, and even
a few months after sowing.- This pre
cocity is one of the most remarkable and
interesting features ol this new type.

the pent up bowels and genera system very
much. Many mothers have told nte of Its ex
